Yes, hole punchers are typically made out of metal. The metal components provide durability and strength for punching holes through paper and other materials.
Hole punchers are a second-class lever because the input force is applied at one end (effort) to overcome a resistance located between the input force and the fulcrum. In this case, the resistance is the paper being punched, and the fulcrum is where the punch contacts the surface. The force applied to the lever arm creates a torque that is greater than the resistance torque, allowing the hole to be punched.
It would get larger due to the expansion of the metal (see the related links)
When a metal plate with a circular hole is heated, the metal expands due to the increase in temperature. As a result, the size of the hole also expands slightly. This phenomenon is known as thermal expansion.
As the circular metal sheet is heated, it expands uniformly in all directions, including the hole. However, since the hole is not a separate entity but simply a void within the metal, it does not grow smaller or larger. The hole appears to change size relative to the expanding metal because of the way our eyes perceive the interaction between the sheet and the hole.
The best way to make a hole in sheet metal is to use a drill with a metal-cutting bit. This method is precise and efficient for creating clean holes in different sizes. Alternatively, if you need a larger hole, punching or burning with a plasma cutter can also be effective, depending on the thickness of the metal.
Hole punchers can be used for a multitude of reasons including artistic purposes. Single hole punchers are much more portable than 3-prong hole punchers and can easily substitute for them. Moreover, hole punchers are often also used as a way to permanently "mark" or score many pieces of paper in a stack simultaneously for various tasks.

A hole can be made in metal without using a drill by using methods such as punching, laser cutting, or plasma cutting. These techniques involve applying force or heat to create a hole in the metal.

Yes.
A hole punch works like a pair of circular scissors used to cut a perfect circle in a piece of paper, cardboard, or other material. There are many different kinds and materials hole punchers are made of but the standard kind is simply a sharp circle that in a quick motion acts like a pair of precise scissors.
The company Formax is known mainly for its various paper related machines. Some of their products include envelope openers, laminators, and hole punchers.

the punchers
When a sheet of metal with a hole in it is heated, the metal will expand uniformly, causing the hole to increase in size. This occurs because the metal atoms move apart as they gain energy from the heat. As a result, both the material surrounding the hole and the hole itself expand, but the relative size of the hole remains the same in relation to the metal around it. Thus, the hole does not close or change shape; it simply grows larger.
The safest way to make a hole in a piece of sheet metal is to use a drill with a metal drill bit or a hole saw, ensuring you wear safety goggles and gloves for protection. Secure the sheet metal firmly on a stable surface or clamp it down to prevent movement. Start with a small pilot hole if necessary, and apply steady, moderate pressure while drilling to avoid slipping. Always be cautious of sharp edges after the hole is made and clean up any metal shavings.
